Public service sector trade unions have expressed support for the Kenya Medical Pharmacist and Dentist Union and Clinical Officers strike. The unions say they are in solidarity with the medics to protect their professions and to fight the disregard for previously signed collective bargaining agreements. And as Emily Chebet reports, the unions have condemned CS Moses Kuria’s utterances of converting permanent employees to contracts as a violation of labour laws saying they will resist any such move at all cost. The doctors’ strike marks the 48th day as clinical officers mark their 30th day on the streets.
